title: Effects of cyclosporine on renal function in psoriasis patients.
abstract: Several prospective studies have documented the effectiveness of oral cyclosporine in the treatment of psoriasis. Despite this, the use of cyclosporine has been limited because of concern about the possibility of drug-induced renal dysfunction. We review the effects of cyclosporine on renal function.
